Ask Norman City Council to buy Fair Trade
The Issue
Hundreds of communities across the world are working to promote Fair Trade in their area, meeting goals to become recognized as a Fair Trade Town. Norman is close to becoming the 15th Fair Trade Town in the United States and the first in Oklahoma. It is time for Norman to join cities such as San Francisco and Milwaukee in a step that can alleviate global poverty through support of Fair Trade products locally.To proceed further, we need a commitment from the city council to purchase Fair Trade Certified products.
